It's more fun than this one is. It is amazing to me the amount of time spent here on UPS furloughing. You want to talk about whining? Holy bat crap! Here is the obvious: 1. Have not happened and 2. Even Brown management apparently says isn't going to happen. Now, that's whining! The furloughs are starting at ABX now. The entire whisperjet fleet at Astar is in the process of being parked now as well. Four a/c per weekend are being shuttled off to the CVG ramp. Statistically that's over half of the total fleet. So don't worry Commando. Soon you'll get to see the real shutdown start.
